WICKES HORIZONTAL WATER TUBE SAFETY STEAM BOILERS As Located In Boiler Room Of Detroit Water Works. Nos. 2 are same mines as Nos. 2, but some years older. PETROLEUM. Crude petroleum varies greatly in color according to the locality: it is usually yellowish, greenish, or reddish brown, of benzine-like odor, and specific gravity of 0.78 to 0.80. It "flashes" at the ordinary temperature; hence great care should be employed in its use and storage. Its percentage composition is shown below: Carbon Hydrogen 84.0 to 85.0 16.0 to 15.0 SAW MILL PLANT OF C. K. EDDY & SONS, SAGINAW, MICH. Supplied With Four 200 H. P. Wickes Water Tube Safety Steam Boilers. It is more than twice as efficient as the best anthracite coal. Poole gives the following table of calorific power of oils: A barrel of oil contains 42 gallons. A most exhaustive test between oil and coal was made at the boiler plant of the Twin City Rapid Transit Co., Minneapolis, and St. Paul, Minn., by Messrs. Wm. The Calorific Power of Fuels. A.
